KKPIT Kone Beetle Truck Sport – Unleash Off-Road Excellence

KKPIT KBT SP is a high-performance 1/8 scale AWD desert truck, engineered for serious RC enthusiasts who demand durability, adjustability, and power in every run. With its robust 7075-T6 CNC-machined aluminum chassis and fully independent suspension, this truck is built to dominate off-road terrain and high-speed racing environments alike.

Equipped with a 3-differential drivetrain and premium metallic hydraulic shocks (16mm / 0.63″ diameter), the KBT Sport offers exceptional ground handling and adjustability. The threaded coilover design supports fine-tuning of suspension stiffness, while the multi-position shock towers and suspension arms ensure precise geometry changes for optimized handling across different terrains.

At its core, the truck runs a CNC-machined 42T spiral gear differential, paired with a redesigned 46T nylon center diff reinforced with a steel cup insert, achieving the perfect balance of lightweight design and noise reduction. The 4.5mm center dogbone shaft and 4.0mm (0.16″) CVD wheel shafts offer reliable power transfer, even under aggressive suspension articulation.

For improved durability and long-term performance, the KBT Sport features chrome steel drive cups, deep-groove ball bearings across drivetrain and motor mount, and reverse-thread steel turnbuckles for precise tuning. The adjustable ESC and battery tray module allows quick changes in weight distribution, tailoring the handling to your driving style and surface conditions.

Additional highlights include:

Ackermann-style steering geometry with stainless steel ball joints and bronze bushings for smooth response
CNC 17mm (0.67″) hex wheel hubs for strength and compatibility
Destroyer tires with high-grip rubber compound and rear mud scrapers for reduced rotational mass
Eccentric rear hub blocks enabling rapid toe/roll geometry tuning
Reinforced mudguards and dual-layer composite front arms for extra impact resistance

Whether you’re racing on hard soil, gravel, or sand, the KBT Sport 1/8 scale desert truck delivers uncompromised control, extreme durability, and modular versatility. It’s a precision-engineered RC truck made for those who settle for nothing less than high performance and tuning flexibility.
